Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Wllk-M-Unrre. June 27. The Mlncri
yesterday won from Wllkcs-Harrc
tbi odd same In the present scries (if
thieo and the sixth panic out cf n
total of elKht played. The Ran.o
opened with four runs for Wilkes-Ham:
In the first lrftilnK, thanks to errors by
Jlenney and Massey and timely lilt
tlnc WIIUcs-Barre's lead was, how
ever, of brief duration, for In the
Scranton half the Miners profltted by
Mnnvllle's wlldness which was chiefly
responsible for six Scranton runs.
Morse pitched more effectively than
Manvllle after the early part of tlio
emtio and this with Rood fielding and
more timely hitting Krndually In
creased the Scranton tally to a total
of thirteen at the Ilnlsh, Wllkcs-Harrc
tallying but ono run after the opening
chapter. A few more than seven hun
dred persons saw the game and a
large number of these severely roasted
their home team and had much to do
with their poor playing.
Goeckel was the first Wllkes-Barro
candidate at bat but he fanned. Sholta
hit a fly to right nnd Meaney muffed
it. OdwelPs grounder to Massey
should have been a force hit and tho
beginning of n double play but Hlg
UIU made a poor throw to second, tho
ball hitting Sholta on the back and
both runners were safe. Hits by Bot
tcnus, lietts and Smith scored four
runs.
Scranton's bIx runs were more easily
made. Meaney hit for three bases and
the bases tilled on walks to AVnlters
and Beard. A run was forced In on a
walk of Kagan, and another on a
fielder's choice from Bonner. Massey's
hlt-by-pitcher developed the third run
nnd Magulres base on halls the fourth.
Boyd hit to Manvllle and a double
play was made from the latter to Big
gins to Oocckel. Two runs were scored
on n wild pitch before the side was re
tired. Wllkes-Barre's run in tho fourth
was duo to (loeckel's single, a nncrlileo
and a scratch by Bottenus. The score:

Itarre If a Bcrantonlan's version of the
hit Is correct. According to thin gentle
man's statement Maiwey swatted tho
ball viciously, It went so low over tho
diamond 'that McMahon made a bluff at
Jumping for It, but It lilt th fence- at
left center nnd bounded back so ciulckly
that Massey was put out at third. The
hit must have- been terrlfio to enthuso
Th Tribune's Informant Into a state
ment that Massey turned first base Just
as tho ball hit tho fence. This Is a good
paragraph to fan about, but wo won't
vouch for Its truthfulness,
manager Barnlc, of tho Urooklyns, Is
trying to arrange a deal with the l'ltto
burg club, whereby Jimmy Donnelly can
be seen In a Brooklyn uniform. "Ger
many" Smith Is stilt In a had way from
his broken rib, and ha Is roally In 110
shapo to play. .Manager Barnla ovldcntly
thinks ho would have no troublo In con
trolling Donnelly or he would not try to
get him. Donnelly Is a splendid fielder,
but was never much as a batsman.
Tho Miners begin In Provldenco today
a scries of 'three games and then go to
Springfield to finish tho week. They left
homo after having lost but two out of
nine games played, which In pait made
amends for the nightmare trip up north.
With Its present clean bill of health It
wouM be reasonable to presume that the
club will win halt of this week's games
nnd return homo next Monday In proper
trim to play threo games with Wilkes
Barre and then get even with Toronto,
Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuso, Tho
four regular pitchers are In first-class
form and Meaney wlll.be hvallnblo to go
In the box or outllold at any time,
Those record playirs, who Insist on reg
istering' a kick because they H'lloU'
themselves short a hit, "robbed out of
their blnglcs," as they put It, injuro no
ono but themselves when they scan the
columns of tho papers every morning In
search of tho error nnd hit column, nnd
inako caustla comments over their rocord
of tho day bcfoio. In nine cases out of
ten, tho kick Is unjustifiable, nnd comes
from tho fellows with the ossified skulls.
Tho player who has a continuous eye on
his record. Is fast becoming a mark for
mnnagcrs, more so, In fact, than ever
before, unci tho sooner the record favor
'Ite realizes this fact tho longer will ho be
a bio to earn tread and butter as a ball
player.

Nat Butler, of Cambridge, carried
everything before him In the races at
Charles River park, Cambridge, Mass.,
Saturday, His ono mllo match race,
"paced" with Monte Bcott, was ono of
tho most interesting events seen here
this season. Butler took the first boat In
2.17 3-5; the second heat and match in
2.13 2-5 seconds.
The one-mile open professional was
a close contest between Nat Butler,
Eddie McDuiTle and V. A. Qately. They
rodo In a bunch till at the homestretch,
so that the result was In doubt up to
the last moment. They finished in tho
order named.
In a two-mile exhibition W. R. Brln
fcerhoff, of Harvard, lowered the col-
lego record from 4 minutes 40 1-5 sec
onds to 4 minutes 0 1-5 seconds, coming
near to tho amateur record, which Is 4
minutes 7 1-G seconds.
The unique feature of the meet was
tho fifty-mile ride of Rudolph Laurleks,
of tho Bay State wheelmen. This was
tho last event of the meet and was
watched with Interest during the first
twenty-five miles, owing to the fine rid
ing form of Captain Laurleks. He un
dertook to break the amateur records
unpaced from one to fifty miles. Lau
rleks began breaking records nt the six-
mile mark, lowering the record for that J
instance rrom 16 minuten is scconas to
1G minutes 12 3-6 seconds. Laurlck's
time for fifty miles was 3 hours, 23
minutes and 25 seconds.
He rode the last mile In 3 minutes
1-5 second spurting down the stretch
apparently as fresh and cheerful ns at
tho half-way mark. The time made by
laurleks this afternoon after the six
mllo mark stands as the amateur rec
ords for each mile, and for the whole
distance.
AMERICANS AT HENLEY.
cdy play of the old man's came off un
der tho ehlmnwr of Vesuvius, by the
romantlo bay of Naples, inl tho ylntr
of 'S9.
"Anson wan catching for tho Spald
ing tciun, and we that is, the all
American aggregation had tied the
score In tho fifth' inning, with Fred
Carroll at tho bat. Spalding never
charged admission to tho games that
were played in Aela oiid 6n the Euro
pean continent outside of Paris, nnd
our free show drew ns motley a mob
of velvet-orbed Dagoes as ever roasted
chestnuts. Tho crowd awamned the
playing ground, and was spilled over to
the vergo of the base lines, and it wns
agreed that vny bnll knocked In tho
crowd was good for only a base hit.
I was on. third and Billy Karle on sec
ond, with the scoro n. tie-, and Carroll
at the bat. Carroll pasted a lino liall
along the first base line. The ball
waltzed over th,e first ack, took an up
shoot, and Interviewed the top piece
of n. Dago guitar player who was mur
dering Verdi's 'Troubadour' between
the Innings,
"Eurlo and myself scored on tho hit,
nnd Uncle Anaon pulled off his part and
mask and argued that ho would not
go on with tho gamo unless George
Wright, who was the umpire, chanced
his decision. This break of Uncle's was
rather childish, but tho old man has;
his eccentricities, nnd we had to listen
to him. He claimed that the bnll went
foul, hut Wright Insisted that tho ball
was fair. Now camo Unolo'a comedy
turn. It M'as our last gamo, and Un
cle, ever mindful of tho Interest of Al
Spalding, figured thnt tlio loss of A
homo Plato would cost Al nt leaat 40
cents. So he flopped on his knees, dug
tho homo rubber out of tho ground,
tcssed his mask and pad over his nrm,
nnd swelled to the. carriage, a hot ns
a burnt boot with rage.
"Ha and George Wright were a case
of Nnnsen discovering the north pole
every time thy met for a month after.
But the sight of the old maw raving
over the loss of the game nnd pro
tecting Spalding's Interest to the tuno
of 40 cents was a pleo-j of comedy that
would have made the hit of Anson'a
saffron show, 'Tho Runaway Colt'."

Poughkeepslo, N. Y Juno 27. The
position of Cornell In college boat rac
ing was mado known today ns follows:
First, Cornell will, ns victors, receive
almost any proposition from Yale and
Harvard that these colleges wish to
make, but will not present a proposi
tion ns to future engagements.
Second, no proposition will be ac
cepted by Cornell thnt compels her to
Join in an exclusive class with Yale and
Harvard at tho sacrifice of her friendly
relations with Columbia nnd Pennsyl
vania. Third, Cornell, Columbia nnd Penn
sylvania will combine for races, prob
ably upon this course, and will Invite
tho University of Wisconsin to come In.
Ynlo nnd Harvard may also enter If
their cxculslve dual agreement Is not a
handicap. '
MAY RACK IN ENGLAND.
Fourth, Cornell may try to arrange
to race again In England with purely
American methods nnd ns the represen
tative of American college rowing.
Cornell holds that her victory over
the two other colleges compels recog
nition If Harvard and Ynlo wish to hold
or attempt to hold the record for
American college rawing. Cornell also
holds that an' Cornell, as victor, conde
scends to row with Pennsylvania and
Columbia In a spirit of true sportsman
ship nnd to make the American cham
pionship as great a victor as possible,
Ynlo nnd Harvard should come Into the
combination until at least such time as
it Is demonstrated that they arc su
perior to these other colleges.

Philadelphia, June 27. Present np-'
pparances Indicate that the- National
circuit will not assume Its old-tlmo
Importance until the National meet,
which Is to bo held in this city Aug.
4-7. And It Is highly probable that
after the big fixture the crackajacks
instead of remaining with the National
circuit will go their several ways In
f;earch of the big purses that are hung
up at Independent meets throughout
tho country. The fact that the nation
al meet will offer tho first, perhaps the
only, opportunity this year to see all
the professional and amateur cracka
jacks of the country gathered together
In a. grand struggle for valuable prises
will In no wise distract from its inter
est; Indeed, this fact alone will prob
ably attract thousands of out-of-town-ers
to the city during the last two
days of the meet.
Local hotels are already "beginning to
book numerous Individual applications
for accommodations during the week
of the meet. Tho majority of these or
ders come direct from those who have'
visited this city before, nnd have their
favorltf stopping places. Tho hotel
committee chairman, W. P. Street, Jr.,
U attending to the many applications
from parties and clubs, and several of
tho smaller hotels are filled up for the
week.
The footless, armless, legless, hand
less, blind, deaf and paralytic phenom
enons who want to do exhibition riding
during tho meet are still coming to the
front. Chairman Dlmon, of the race
meet committee, has named a sub
committee which ho has dubbed the
"Hospital committee," to which all
these applications are referred.
The Willow Grove authorities have
arranged for tho checking of 5,000
wheels during the two days' races.
WONDERFUL PACINQ JOHNNY.
He Will Ho Soon at tho Driving Park
Uncus This Week.
racing Johnny Is the most wonder
ful horse alive today. He goes with
out rider or driver, will go up tho
stretch, score down, and quickly re
turns at the tap of the bell, scores
down again and will score as many
times as he Is asked. When tho word
"go" is given he starts away pacing
very rapidly, and he has a record of
2.12U. Ho beats all bicyclists when
they ride against him. He Is also
broken so that his owner gets up be
hind him on, the sulky, and drives hlnv
without reins a full mile in 2.12U; ho
will also follow a. brass band all around
the street.
This horse has created a. wonderful
sensation all through thn west, und is
owned by W. II. Barnes, Sioux City,
lown, Pacing Johnny has been secured
at a very large figure to come to this
city and give two exhibitions each
day as above described at tho races
here this week. Kellar and Gregory
have been engaged to ride the tandem
bicycle against this horso at tho several
cventH. Tho featuro alone Is worth
the price of admission.
The bills advertising the races set
forth that on Thursday tho class 7
event will be a "2:35 trot, purse $200."
The time should be 2.25 Instead of 2.35.
